Though she was once engaged to her fiance Orlando Scandrick, their marriage never materialized.

Draya Michele Was Engaged To Orlando Scandrick
As we noted before, Michele has been in a few unsuccessful relationships in the past as well.
In fact, she was even already engaged to be married to Football cornerback Orlando Scandrick.
The two had an on-again and off-again romance between 2014 to 2019.
As per the allegations from CheatSheet, Draya met her ex-fiance Orlando in 2014 and shortly began dating.
Just a year later, in 2015, the football cornerback proposed to her with a $400,000 engagement ring during a movie date.
Talking about the idea to People, she remarked,
“He got down on one knee and as soon as he started to talk I grew anxious and couldn’t help but laugh uncontrollably.
I was laughing and weeping at the same time.”
Eventually, in January 2016, the social media celebrity confirmed her pregnancy with Scandrick.
In an Instagram post, she wrote, “We are prepared for a Taurus baby,” the former Basketball Wives star, who has over 4.8 million followers on Instagram, added.
“He’ll be the first Taurus in our family of four Aquarius and one Capricorn (nearly Aquarius)!”
They welcomed their kid Jru Scandrick in 2016 and he is 6 years of age in 2022.
Unfortunately, the pair could not sustain their relationship for too long.
Though they had many separations throughout their relationship, they declared their last goodbye in 2019 via an Instagram post.
She wrote, “I have been single the entire month of December.
So, if anyone has anything to say about me or the guy I used to be engaged to, save, it. We don’t care.”
Who Is The Father Of Draya’s First Child Kniko Howard?
In case you didn’t know, Michele Gave birth to her first child Kniko Howard when she was barely 17 years of age.
Eventually, with all the celebrity, the question regarding Kniko Howard’s father became a significant topic.
In reality, other men including basketball player, Gilbert Arenas, who she dated at the time, were speculated to be her son’s father.
Further, there were also reports that Gilbert paid $20,000 to tabloids to quiet down the news.
It didn’t end there and the former Basketball Wives star, Jennifer Williams too charged him of being the father of Kniko.
She even mentioned she had seen a message that listed Gilbert as the kid’s father.
All the speculations and rumors were refuted as Draya Michele revealed the biological father of Kniko.
The actress and model stated that she was merely 17 when a man impregnated her and that he was later incarcerated for 10 years when she was just 7 months pregnant.
“This is Darya……” I became pregnant at the age of 17 by a man who was incarcerated for ten months while I was seven months pregnant.
With help from my mom, I was able to survive”
Further, she also spoke in favor of the alleged father Orlando saying she was not at all in a position to have an affair with a successful athlete like Orlando.
She also said that she would not work in clubs if she had the status to date him.
Now, judging by how underdeveloped and young I was, besides living in a very small city in PA…..
There’s no way that in 2002 I got pregnant by some athlete.
